About us

We're passionate about supporting people with experience of mental illness or addictions - we’ve been dedicated to it for more than 25 years.

Pathways is a leading national provider of community-based mental health, addiction and wellbeing services. Every year we support around 5000 people, all around New Zealand, to live well in the communities of their choice.

Our journey

Pathways was established in 1989, introducing a new model of care that helped change the mental health sector in New Zealand forever.

Since then Pathways has continually developed its services based on feedback from people using our services, and best practice around the world.

Our stories

At Pathways we are inspired by the recovery stories of the people who use our services. These stories are about journeys, experiences, challenges and joys. They're about strength, motivation and inspiration.
